SPECIES Crocidura batesi
| Author: | Dollman, 1915. | | Citation: | Ann. Mag. Nat. Hist., ser. 8, 15: 143. | | Common Name: | Bate’s Shrew | | Type Locality: | "Como River, Gabon." | | Distribution: | Lowland forest in S Cameroon and Gabon. | | Status: | IUCN – Lower Risk (lc). | | Comments: | Often included in poensis; specimens from Cameroon and Gabon have been reported as wimmeri; but see Brosset (1988). Karyotype (2n = 50, FN = 76) identical to that of nigeriae (Schlitter et al., 1999). This complex requires a pan-African revision. |
